About this mod
Changes the glow on torches to feel more natural and increase the draw distance on them with a very low impact on performance. Optionally massively increase the draw distance of lights to have the environment in the distance feel more alive.

What it does
Alternative version
Optional file
Extract the contents of the .zip file to your ../Mods folder.
Uninstallation
Delete the folder zzBetterTorches from your ../Mods folder.
Compatibility
- Mainly changes the glow around the torch to blend more naturally with the environment and be less intrusive / immersion-breaking and also reduce the pop-in effect when moving further away from a torch by disabling one of the 2 "glow" particles and changing several parameters on the other glow particle.
- Increase the draw distance on some particles of the torch so that the visibility is increased a lot.
Alternative version
- BetterTorches_NoGlow - Completely removes the glow from torches, but keeps the draw distance increase on torches.
- BetterTorches_SmallGlow - This is the reworked version of Torch glow begone, making that mod obsolete and it will be removed.
Optional file
- BetterTorches_IncreasedDrawLights - Massively increase the draw distance of lights (expect a performance impact, enthusiast only!)
Can be used in combination with any mod, only a CVAR change
Extract the contents of the .zip file to your ../Mods folder.
Uninstallation
Delete the folder zzBetterTorches from your ../Mods folder.
Compatibility
- NOT compatible with my other mod Torch glow begone. The glow effect from this mod will not appear when Torch glow begone is installed. Torch glow begone keeps a small glow around the torchfire. If you want it completely removed, download the BetterTorches_NoGlow.
- Compatible with any other mod except ones that change fires.torch_trailer in WH_Particels.xml (yes the typo is warhorse's, not mine)
- for those wondering, I made sure it is compatible with Brighter Torch and Extended Brighter Torches as it modifies different files.
- It is also compatible with ParticlesPlus, again given that it is loaded before this mod (so bettertorches last). Any changes done by ParticlesPlus to any of the particles in WH_Particels.xml will not be implemented and overridden by this mod. (hoping Warhorse updates the particle system to allow for PTF)
